The Buddha did not become enlightened until he completely let go of the desire to become enlightened. He almost starved to death in the process. You really have no idea what enlightenment is. You teach a cartoon version of spirituality and you delude yourself and your would-be followers in the process. You don't underatand a thing. You have strayed from the path. I won't bother you anymore, you are too stubborn to listen to anyone but yourself. Your awakenings are meaningless ego noise.

Telling people to blast their heads with substances is not a teaching and it will create a lot of needless suffering. You don't really need a teacher. You need inner peace and you will understand without understanding. Life is a very simple affair. You're the one insisting that it's complicated. So it will reflect back to you as much complication as you desire. And when you're ready to let that go, you will awaken without effort.

It will take some time for Leo to find humbleness. He believes he has it figured out, but there is nothing to figure out. Even worse, there's no one to figure it out. Once you get how simple things are, you stop creating delusions. Leo's intentions have always been good but his teachings have been corrupted by the ego who insists on knowing rather than letting go. His ego hates the idea of not knowing, and so he hates wise old sages who never give the secret away, knowing full well the secret would immediately get corrupted by the ego who lusts for control. Stop taking things personally. The reason you're upset with Leo is you attach your own perspective to his whim. Do not do this, develop your own whim instead. Maintain inner silence and truth will have nowhere to hide. Best of luck.

You do control everything. You are all there is. If you wanted to dispel this illusion right now you would, but you want to keep playing.

There is nothing to achieve. And if there is something to achieve then you've already achieved it.

As opposed to Leo's dogma. All roads lead nowhere.

This is a feature of knowledge, not something you can blame Leo for. Even the highest sages can't explain the truth to you because the truth far transcends any Earthly explanation you might try to wrap around it. Truth is like a slippery fish that you can't grab a hold of - the more you try the more it wiggles around and slips away. The only way to see truth is through direct experience. Every description of truth will end up contradicting itself. The problem with Leo is that he prefers glimpses of truth to living the truth, and he fills your minds with imaginary noise. Only inner silence can break the spell, no chemical will ever do it for you. The truth is, the chemical is your own reflection of your inner world. You are stirred on the inside and you get off on glimpses of the divine, and this is why you reflect into the world the image of a chemical which can give you such a glimpse. It is delusion and worse, it is attachment. Realization dispels even your chemical miracles. It can never leave you.

You are lost in description and missing the obvious. Feel free to claim whatever you wish but you lack wisdom. 20 years from now you will look at your past self and see a fool.

This is why psychedelics lead you nowhere. Instead of dancing with the mystery, the ego now claims it unraveled the mystery. This is a trap and the wise would be well advised to notice it in advance.

How do you feel when you think about kicking a defenseless little puppy, making him suffer? How do you feel when you think about hugging a cute little puppy, making him happy and expressing joy by licking your face? Don't complicate things that are simple.

When Buddha was asked "what is god?", he maintained noble silence. This is the highest answer and the highest teaching. The great Tao fulfills its promises silently and makes no claims. For as long as you make claims, you are fooling yourself. That which seems is not that which is. By attaching yourself to substances, you are no better than the drunk attaching himself to the bottle which he so dearly cherishes. You see the spirit in substances because spirit is in all things. When you awaken from the dream, there is nothing to say and nothing to defend. Nothing to grab hold of. Awakening transcends even your notions of God and infinity. When you awaken you will understand that God is merely a word, no better or worse than any other word. You are not a word. The source of all origination is that which cannot be named. Inner silence is the way to truth. Everything else is delusion.

Only a lit match can light other matches. This community is a box of unlit matches trying to get lit by another unlit match. You will know a lit match when you encounter one, you will feel the warmth of the flame.

God is a word. This is the final message I have for you. Good luck.

You perceive truth as threat, because truth is threatening to your self deception and your neurotic way of life. If you wish to continue suffering then you are free to do so. If you wish to submerge into the sea of infinite wisdom, then you are required to drop your self deception and drop your endless semantic mazes. Leo will never help you find truth, because Leo is just as lost as everyone else. Dive into inner silence and you will find the source of infinite understanding and infinite joy.

Become Buddha rather than listening to Buddha.
